    So the point of the Easter Gear Crates is to sell acorns for real money?

    Since I wasn't surprised at all to play for the first time since the patch, level up and get a disappearing crate again. I suppose I can spend real money to buy the items in the Store though.

    How you can have this be broken for 6 weeks and multiple patches I do not know, and then you go and add more content while the delivery mechanism is still broken!

    Yay, Easter loot crates but it's impossible to get any, for a limited time only! Call 1-888-BULLSHT.

    2 patches, not much is better but lots of things have gotten worse, this is some of the worst patching "progress" I have seen in my gaming career of 35 years.

    If I buy a crate, will it disappear as the dozens of levelling up crates I never got ?
    if it doesn't, will the stuff from this crates be sucked in a black hole, as it happened for the 3 crates i bought with my Uplay points ?

    The main question is : should I spend real money to find out ?

    I DON'T THINK SO UBISOFT

    same here. started doing lame contracts again to get some eastern crates but get nothing. obviously not going to get fixed before the event ends. just unreal how you can even add stuff like this before fixing issues that directly effect those things.

    i feel like all the money, crates and now eastern crates that just disappeared will be gone forever... if that's going to be the case then that's just embarrassing.

    I was actually thinking the exact same thing yesterday..Ive also been a gamer since 1985-86..But i have never experienzed a more broken game. After the last patch the game still crashes my ps4 pro all the time in Track Central..Still lags in career tracks..Im a huge fan of Trials, but this starting to get ridiculous...

    6 days until the Easter Event ends, you put gear in the Easter Gear Crates, then don't deliver said crates to players.

    I am having trouble thinking of a game which has had worse post launch support than Rising. There isn't even any acknowledgment that this is being worked on. Why you'd release content which relies on a broken delivery mechanism is... I probably can't say what I'm thinking here. I still can't rely on my chosen shirt and hat being equipped each time I start the game. I'd call this amateur hour but I fear it would be insulting to amateurs.

    EDIT: Just beat a Challenger 3 times, got no crate.

    What's especially ironic about this whole mess is that most gamers despise lootboxes, and you had no reason to put them in the game but you did, and it was partially responsible for killing gamer support around launch. Not only do you take all the flak that comes with implementing lootboxes, you don't actually deliver them to the players anyway! Mind blown.

    i get one every time i level up. Got most of the easter stuff, i dont get why people are saying Real money? Real money isnt needed anywhere in the game to buy ANY items.

    It's needed if you aren't getting crates. Have you honestly not seen any of the posts and topics from people saying they haven't received crates? It seems a common problem from around level 85 onwards.

    dont need crates, you get plenty of money just for playing tracks, acorns for doing challenges and so on, so crates and real money arent needed, just saying.

    I'm sure the value of acorn-only gear in the Store is greater than the amount of acorns the game gives you. Which is fine. And no doubt more gear will be added in coming months. You'd run out of acorns if you wanted to have all the cosmetics and weren't fortunate enough to be missing zero crates. I know I've missed out on about 50 of them so far.
